even as an american, american cheese is disgusting.
I can taste the emulsifier they add to it so it "melts" nicer.
I will disagree with pasta and cheddar, though. Mac and Cheese is wonderful. (well. from scratch mac and cheese. blue boxes need not apply)

Have you tried sartori or belgioioso Parmesan? They aren't parmegiano Reggianio, but they definitely scratch a similar itch. If you're talking about "American cheese" itself then, yeah, you either know that that's not cheese or are living in ignorant bliss not knowing what cheese actually is

Humboldt Fog is the best cheese I've ever tasted, and it's from the U.S. Cabot Cheddar I would compare favorably to other cheddars, we have some good cheeses here.
Parmesan though? I would just buy less & still get the reggiano. Sometimes I just stand by the display and smell it, it is so good.
Possibly one of the best cheddars in the world is from the US (and comes in a can)

I've had it, it's really good, and it keeps basically forever in the refrigerator, arguably getting better as it ages
